Chapter 1391 647: The Descent of the Holy Spirit upon the West Coast, Golden Light Shining 30,000 Miles

The fleets of both sides silently made way, and the flagships of the two nations courteously signaled greetings to Byron, the second emperor of the Silver Continent.

More than a month had passed, and his news had spread throughout the world.

The upper echelon plays their games, with the mid and lower levels seeing only Saint Byron gradually becoming widely regarded as a legend and even an epic after each significant event.

The worshippers in every nation were countless.

Byron could even clearly hear that among the fleets of the two countries, there were devout followers silently reciting the same prayer:

"[The Creator] is the supreme Trinity, the Creator, the Saint Heir, and the Holy Spirit are all fully divine.

The savior at the transition of the Mythological Era and the Silver Era is the Saint Heir, reborn as the Remit person Iesus.

The savior at the transition of the Silver Era and the Luanyan Epoch is the Holy Spirit, embodied in the follower from North Bay.

God shall give you a sign; when the flood arises again, God will bestow the holy name for his feats against the Old Gods: Saint Byron.

The spirit of the Creator shall dwell within him, granting him wisdom and understanding, counsel and might, knowledge and reverence for the Creator..."

Smiling inwardly, Byron realized that his worshippers and faithful no longer distinguished between sects, but were spread throughout the continent.

The title of the Holy Spirit Follower, Saint Byron, was thoroughly cultivated.

Because among the several major branches sharing the same origin of the three religions, there was a similar prophecy:

"In my night visions, I saw one like a son of man coming with the clouds of heaven.

He was led before the Eternal One and was given authority, glory, and a kingdom, so that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve him.

His dominion is everlasting and will not pass away; his kingdom shall never be destroyed."

This person in the prophecies of various churches is the legendary "Messiah."

The concept of Messiah transcends all religious sects and cultures of the Old Continent, manifesting in the Remit Sect, the Creator's Church, and the Holy Spirit Sect.

Though every system has slight differences in defining and expecting the Messiah, essentially it can be simply understood as: "the ultimate savior of this world."

However, because each [Church Founder] did not explicitly state who this savior is, it became one of the fundamental conflicts between the doctrines of the three religious sects.

And Byron once, through the sugar cane paper compiled Sacred Relics [Key of Omniscience], wrote this same passage in the core classics of the three major religions, becoming the key link connecting the three sects.

Furthermore, it allowed him to obtain the strong declaration of "causing all peoples, nations, and languages to serve him!"

The more contributions Byron made to humanity, the louder his reputation became, and the more people believed he was the Messiah, increasing his power.

Especially since he declared himself as the [Holy Spirit] equal to the Creator, naturally having the strongest influence on the countries worshiping the Holy Spirit in the Holy Spirit Sect.

"Once my position as Holy Spirit is solidified, the fundamental disagreement between the Orthodox Way Faction and the Followers Faction will cease to exist.

[The Church Founder] was merely a prophet; regardless of who his successor is, how can they compare to the Holy Spirit itself?

The assist from the Fire Worship Empire came at such an opportune moment.

I only hope they sincerely wish to extend their aid, and I will not hesitate to provide them help."

Byron's fleet soon encountered the escort fleet sent by Nasser Din, the current King of the Sassanid Dynasty.

Together, they arrived at Susa Imperial City of the Fire Worship Empire, located on the northern shore of the Inland Sea, the west coast of the continent.

Wave after wave, miles of clear skies.

Byron stood at the bow, gazing at the ancient city built by the sea.

His "Unity of All Things" exceeded 10%, and the resonance with [Myriad Wings Angel] reached a level of transformation, making his [Holy Spirit] aura increasingly potent.

The process of "fake it till you make it" was at least halfway complete; even the most devout followers and legendary prophets would absolutely not notice the slightest flaw.

When gazing at this land from afar, one could clearly sense the mind wish power flowing over the city, strongly resonating with the rank of [Holy Spirit].

"The religious atmosphere here is extremely fervent, truly deserving of a country where politics and religion are unified.

Without the internal conflict between ecclesiastical power and royal power, the authority the upper echelon can wield far exceeds the imaginations of the monarchs of various East Coast countries.

The Sultan of the Star Moon Empire and the Shah of the Fire Worship Empire are both secular rulers and spiritual leaders, stronger than ordinary kingly titles during the Crusades when saints did not join the battles.

Beneath the Sultan/Shah are elders, chief judges, local church judges, similar to the clergy system on the East Coast, though mostly having substantial political influence.

On this land, a conqueror on the spiritual level is destined to become a conqueror on the material level.

For me, the rules of the game are somewhat simpler."

However, upon seeing the welcome party at the port, although the status next to the King (Shah) Nasser Din was the Great Elder, seemingly high in rank, he was still somewhat dissatisfied inwardly.

"Tch, they're only receiving me with the religious identity of the Holy Spirit Sect, leaving room for the higher-ranking King to remain in the back temporarily without appearing?

Whether for alliance or diplomacy, arranging it this way is reasonable, leaving room for later discussions to see how it pans out.

But I came a long way, and I cannot return empty-handed."

Byron's heart stirred, and for the first time, he fully released 10% of his Unity of All Things, summoning the rank and power of [Myriad Wings Angel].

The next moment.

Clang! Clang! Clang!...

The sound of bells from Heaven echoed throughout the southern coastal areas of the Fire Worship Empire, more precisely, resonating within the hearts of all Holy Spirit Sect believers.
